Rapid RIFE shooting.

"Shooting at the word is first rate prac-
tice. IL trains the eye and the hand 10
work together and gets the ioreiingcr into
the habit of pressing the trigger at just
the right moment. Grasp the rifle in
the Kentucky manner on in DR.. Carver's
style, holding the butt just below the ol-
bow, and keep the eye liXcd upon the
mark. III You can shoot with both eyes
open so much the better. AZ the word
'Firer bring the butt 10 the shoulder
quickly and raise the barrel until the
sights are in line with the mark, pressing
tho trigger as soon as yOu see them in
line. You must shoot after the word
'Firep and before the counter finishes
counting three like the tick Of n clock.
With practice the rifle Will come into po-
sition instantly, the eye will telegraph 60
the forciinger that the aim Is right and
the finger will press the trigger uncon.
sciously. Men who practice this style of
shooting can 90 moro accurate work at
the word than in taking deliberate aim,
and they will fire when the counter says
One
"Another good plan is to take a repeat
ing rihe-a Winchester, for cXample-and
try To put rs many shots rs possible into
the bulls eye as rapidly rs the gun can be
fired. Try for accuracy first and rapidity
by degrees. 1t is well TO vary the mark
and not shoot at a round blacl, bulls eye
oil the time. Fire at swinging balls, sus-
pended bullets, white objects, things Of
irregular shape and neutral color, and
then have somebody toss up balls or blocks
Of wood and shoot them on the wing. 1t
Is not so difficult TO hit glass balls in the
air as some people fancy. That kind Of
shooting, as performed in the shows, is
nothing but fake. The ball is thrown
from an old fashioned Bogardus trap, that
losses it easily and on just the same curve
every time. The shooter draws bead on
certain point on the screen, and when
the ball comes into line he let's her go.
More than that, these fake shooters don't
use bullets. Here is one of the Wild West
style of Winchester cartridges. You see
it is brass shell filed with bird shot
That kind OF ammunition is made in large
quantities at the factories for these pho
nomenal riflemen. Carver actually shot
bullets his first season, but il was unsafe,
and he adopted the shot cartridge finally
No man with n bit of sense in his head
would fire rifle bullets around rs Buffalo
Bill pretends TO do. lie might kill some
body mile Off after smashing glass bal
in the air. These wonderful fcats Of
shooting glass balls from horseback with
n rifle ball are actually performed with
bird shot that scatters over q space OF
several feet. Any fair wing shot conldn' t
help smashing the balls.-New York sun.

Turks and rcrsians as nook Lovers.

1t would be strange indeed, if the
Oriental love Of brilliancy in decoration
had not left its mari; upon the books Of
eastern nations The Orientals were the
first to apply gliding TO book covers;
at least they were the prcceptors Of the
people Of Europe in this branch Of decor
alive art Their books were held in
an estimation that bordercd upon veneer
alton. They not only incloscd them il
book cases with glass doors. but they put
each book into an ornamental box, upon
which was written the name Of the author
and the title Of the book. Byan ingenious
arrangement, consisting OF q cord and
false bottom 10 the box, the hook could,
by simply puliing on The cord, be made to
issue from its resting place and come out
into full view of the visitor. The cases
were of cedar, ornamcnted with mother
Of pearl and gliding.
In Persia the books are laid flat upon
shelves, fitted into inches in the library
wall and shut in by rich han ginss attach
ed to the ceiling. The titles arc frequently
fooled upon the edges. d usage that Is
still followed in some parts Of tho globe.
Upon the floor Of the Persian library stand
book chests, four feet in height, and il
these likewise arc stored the treasures
